Come join us in exploring your journey toward motherhood with other new mothers through the fun, sometimes meditative and soul-searching, but always enjoyable and illuminating process of creating art!  You will be led through a journey from the moment you walk in the door, through your fears, your hopes, your dreams, and you will explore these with other mothers-to-be experiencing similar issues.  Don’t be afraid if you’re not “artistic,” there is no artistic ability required, simply a willingness to explore and maybe get a little messy!  You will find that this class series leaves you with a deeper sense and understanding of yourself as a mother, and you will come away with some keepsakes and possibly even a new friend or two.

 

Classes may include, but are not limited to:
